Korea Day at Wimbledon

Nongshim, South Korea’s No1 noodle manufacturer, is delighted to launch the first ever Korea Day as part of their partnership with AFC Wimbledon.

There will be traditional Korean food and drinks available as well as sampling of various Nongshim products, and some Korean entertainment. In order to further links with their New Malden neighbours, AFC Wimbledon has offered the Korean community 200 complimentary tickets to attend the club’s upcoming League 2 clash with Morecambe on Saturday 23 March.

The partnership between Nongshim and AFC Wimbledon was brokered by Korea Foods, Europe’s largest importer, retailer and distributor of Korean Food, who are based locally in New Malden.

Dan Suh, Managing Director of Korea Foods, said: “Football as a sport has grown in popularity in South Korea since the 2002 World Cup and there are South Koreans playing at the highest level throughout Europe and the Premier League.

“AFC Wimbledon is such an important part of the community and Korea Foods want to help them to be able to communicate with the potential Korean fanbase, many of whom live within two miles of the Cherry Red Records Stadium.”

All at the club are looking forward to the day and welcoming our neighbours from New Malden.” Ivor Heller, Commercial Director at AFC Wimbledon, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for the club to engage with the local Korean Community and showcase what we have to offer here at AFC Wimbledon.
